CHILDREN & OTHER PETS
The playful Collie is known for her love of children, even those she wasn’t raised with. She’s highly protective of the kids in her family, watching over them and keeping them safe from danger, just like Lassie did for Timmy.
​
As with every breed, you should always teach children how to approach and touch dogs, and always supervise any interactions between dogs and young children to prevent any biting or ear or tail pulling on the part of either party. Teach your child never to approach any dog while he’s eating or sleeping or to try to take the dog’s food away. No dog, no matter how friendly, should ever be left unsupervised with a child.
​
The Collie is also protective of and gentle with other pets in her family. She’s an affectionate, tender guardian, willing to watch over baby rabbits, chicks, or goats.
